A Place For Friends

(album: Friends With The Enemy - 2011)

A-a-and the body becomes frail, the spirit becomes stronger, because you have something to look forward to

I guess its been a long time a coming now
I been waiting for the rain to wash you down
Praying for change, praying that God keeps you, keeps you around
The doctors been saying complications happen
Been saying we should probably slow it down
Been telling you everything's fine, then telling everybody else
That you're running out of time
Running out of time

So I'll save my prayers for the graveyard there
Waiting for the day we meet again
And you can save us a place, past them pearly white gates
A place for friends, yeah a place for friends

You can find us on a porch remembering the good times
And all the funny things you used to say
Speaking in rhymes from time to time
And then doing your best to show us all the way
And then you went on your way

So I'll save my prayers for the graveyard there
Waiting for the day we meet again
And you can save us a place, past them pearly white gates
A place for friends, yeah

So I'll save my prayers for the graveyard there
(Ooooo yeah)
Waiting for the day we meet again
(Ooooo yeah)
And you can save us a place past them pearly white gates (Ooooo-yeah)
A place for friends, yeah a place for friends
(Ooooo-yeah)

Yeah, a place for friends
(Ooooo-yeah)
Yeah, a place for friends
(Ooooo-yeah)
